* Collective licence revenues are negotiated by Equity under agreements with national broadcasters. Payments from collective licences are administered and distributed by Equity and are supplementary to standard repeat fees and programmes sales. Standard repeat fees and programme sales continue to be handled by broadcasters from their in-house artist payment services.

** Target payment dates for collective licence monies are provisional and subject to change depending upon the volume of productions requiring processing, time taken to verify work, performer and agent data, and the calculation and apportionment of payments to individual performers.
